Thunderfoot's microbong is coming along nicely...

F-Rune - 2020-01-17

millions of vapers looked for these kind of videos

hang da clown - 2020-01-17

enter a whole new level of microdosing

thematrixdll - 2020-01-20

I dunno, it looks more like a microdong here 10:49

The Traitor - 2020-01-17

You should make a video about the wet glass breaking easier. It's the first time I heard of such thing.

LOUMEN - 2020-01-29

@boelwerkr technically...you're wong...glass is not a liquid in any shape way or form. Look it up!!

Alexandru Șepețan - 2020-02-05

@boelwerkr there's a video Veritasium made just on this.

AfonsoCL - 2020-02-07

@boelwerkr Glass is not a liquid.

AfonsoCL - 2020-02-07

@Deranged Chicken It was never considered a liquid. Nothing more than a fake internet rumor.

ElxCriiO - 2020-02-08

actually water can enter in the crack and have a hidrolisis reaction that helps the crack to grow with less force needed

David Gustafik - 2020-01-17

"Really, how many people have an interest in making uncloggable microjets?"
I do now :) At least find it very interesting. I'd love more videos on making and designing weird glass instrumentation :)

Anyway, thanks for an interesting video.

F-Rune - 2020-01-17

Well it's a simple buy or make analysis...We also allways first choose to buy and then later to make it ourselfs exactly the way we need it...

jonline internet - 2020-01-19

Up to this point...at least 11578, give or take a few ;)

Theo Crater - 2020-01-17

For PETE'S SAKE, Dr. Thunder - explain why wet glass would crack a hundred times more easily than dry glass! COME ON now! I really don't think I deserve to be tortured like this.

Jan Grewe - 2020-01-19

@V8Snail Oh, sorry, didn't get that notification, and YT only showed me the last comment this morning when replying. But yeah, i attest you good Google Foo! ;-)

V8Snail - 2020-01-19

@Jan Grewe
No sweat. It's a non-intuitive, brain bending answer to something we didn't know we needed to know.

Zenodilodon - 2020-01-19

@Jan Grewe Excellent Find!

Theo Crater - 2020-01-19

@V8Snail Well >>---> I <---<< knew I needed to know it!

Dedmen Miller - 2020-01-20

@Jan Grewe I remember ceramic floor tiles being cut with a diamond scratcher (similar to class) and then broken (same as glass) so they then break exactly at the scratch. So I thought its the same principle.

Under siege - 2020-01-17

I've done many of these to get the best result you can get two clamps attached to a linear rail, if the heat is applied right you can get perfectly straight nozzles all the time

Geoffrey Waldo - 2020-01-17

A millimeter slide is the best metric..... great nerd humor:)
You’ve got the golden touch with glass;)
BTW a vid on why wet glass cracks easier than dry would be fun.

Geoffrey Waldo - 2020-01-17

Cost of filter 5$. Cost of glass negligible. Cost of a ThunderF00t to make micro jet....Priceless.
;)

Harrison Kilpatrick - 2020-01-17

I wouldnt watch a video about specialty pressurized nozzles by anybody else

Alexandru Șepețan - 2020-02-05

Fact

Smiley Gecko - 2020-01-17

waiting for world smallest flamethrower, sounds cool.

RagbagMcShag - 2020-01-17

Kinda wanna do it myself now lol

TheBackyardChemist - 2020-01-17

just load it with t-BuLi

The FullMetal Mask Duo - 2020-01-17

Well there are microjet engines the size of a mini perfume spray.

wastedPhoenix - 2020-01-18

Elon Musk wants to know your location

Direkin - 2020-01-18

It's always interesting to see what this "failed scientist", as eVscope backers have called him, gets up to in his spare time.

Jeff Nicholson - 2020-01-17

@mymanthunderfoot, I have been subscribed for some time and enjoy everything you publish, never commented before, but I want to let you know that my brain greatly appreciates this kind of stimulus as well as your other great videos. I am pounding on the like button because I appreciate what you do and I feel your motives are driven by the passion and honesty of good of man, I.e., sharing information for the right reasons. The combination of learned intelligence and what seems to be a large serving of intellectual humility makes you one of my top views everyday. Keep it up my friend, you are doing much for mankind. THE WORLDS SMALLEST FLAMETHROWER, oh yes! Bring it on.

martialme84 - 2020-01-19

Scammers on kickscammer or wherever: "thunderf00t be no real scientist blabla..."
Another scientist in the lab: "Thanks, fellow scientist for saving us 6 months´ work!" (And a butt load of money)

Calisto Hüttich - 2020-01-17

Although I have no need for this myself it’s still an interesting video. I am surprised how something precise can be made so simply.

Euan Dickson - 2020-01-17

Entertaining, real science, and no bs. Perfect.

Holland Aucoin - 2020-01-17

Very well done! I never knew what the pressure rating on those luer-lock filters was. I have popped quite a few of them with me squeezing the syringe too hard going into an HPLC.

wwickeddogg - 2020-01-17

"Dirt cheap to make" Never includes the cost of his own labor

Yorkshire_Tea_innit - 2020-01-17

That's just how research is. Acquiring funds is more labour intensive than almost anything else.

II - 2020-01-17

considers his own labor worthless

Shadoweb EB - 2020-01-17

Things are a mystery sometimes, I'm a developer and my cost is over £500 a day, I needed something specific for the project I was working on, and there was a plugin that was doing just that for £300, it would take me 2 days to do it, so for me paying for the plugin was a no-brainer, but my boss insisted that I do it.
But in the case of TF00t, the existing microjets nozzles clogged, so an uncloggable didn't exist, so he basically invented it. Once a company will make them, they will probably buy those instead, maybe?

shadowmax889 - 2020-01-19

He is paying himself for the labor so the net balance is 0. As other comentor said, if he needs to buy a lot of this or suspend the research to find more supplies the cost of waiting for the mail to arrive are more then doing a thing yourself (speciallly if you can do it with cheap materials and in a few minutes)

Ludovic Lagouardette - 2020-01-17

"Who wil find that interesting" you say, well I do find it more than fairly interesting

ironnam - 2020-01-17

These are the videos I subscribed for

Ludovic Lagouardette - 2020-01-17

@ironnam Yep, those video are really useful and show a pragmatic way of achieving results

lrwerewolf - 2020-01-20

"This is just to look pretty" imagines microjet singing, "I feel pretty, oh so pretty, oh so pretty and happy and..."

Towerdog - 2020-01-17

@ 7:09 I'd love to know the science behind why that is (or a few theories). Thx for the video Thunder

PLASMA chicken - 2020-02-05

Glass is essentially a liquid too
When a crack is starting in a dry environment it might fix itself again
In a Wet env, the water acts as impurity and will make cracking easier

Anthony Otolski - 2020-01-17

You should look at video jet. They're a company that make microjet printers and the ink they use is ammonia based. You might find some useful part there.

vavanade - 2020-01-23

You got me thinking whether this production process could be automated. Could you determine the point where you should break it optically by shining a laser through it and looking at the diffraction pattern?

Namsep - 2020-01-17

Awesome, looks to me that this isn't hard to automate / manufacture with even higher precision dropping the costs even more.


Within a few years a nearly impossible piece is now made dirt cheap.

Fabian Konrath - 2020-01-17

Well, yes but like he said, there are half a dozen people interested.

Timothy Dornan - 2020-02-08

“World’s smallest flame thrower” hell yeah.
Observe the minuscule destruction. Awe over it’s tiny destructive power.
You guys don’t know this, but he’s training a tardigrade army to use it. We are all doomed.

W tG - 2020-01-21

Your glasswork skills are impressive, and this example of summation of skills and mastering of hands-on material is quite astonishing, and a pleasure to watch. Thanks for sharing. Awesome sauce.

Giorgio Capocasa - 2020-01-17

This was really interesting! How come wet glass cracks easier than dry glass? Should I start licking all of my ampoules and TLC plates now?

Justin Schroeder - 2020-02-05

Even though I''ll never use this myself, its really cool. Also, I don't know how useful this would be considering you already have what seems like a good solution, but I know for sure that you can get 150 micron 3D printer nozzles in brass. It might suck too much heat, but might be something to check out, especially if its an already manufactured product.

Atlas WalkedAway - 2020-01-17

Couldn't you easily increase the accuracy and precision of the alignment of the jet with the main axis of flow in the filter by chucking the input side in a good drill or mini lathe when still molten and spinning the thing on a thin wire stuck into to nozzle end?

excited box - 2020-01-20

Quite interesting. Sometimes it is the simple solutions that work the best. I am working on a copper nanoparticle inkjet printer and need to make sure that a roughly 4um nozzle wont clog when putting 10-20nm copper particles through it. These particles love to cluster together and so far the adjustments to the ink composition have been what keeps the nozzles from clogging. Gotta keep in mind that inks can sit around for weeks in a printer and copper is very reactive. The oxygen content of water is enough to make the particles oxidize in a matter of minutes without the addition of a reducing agent.

Felipe Siqueira - 2020-01-22

i had a similar problem, the answer was simple, a powerfulldvd red laser on the nozzle, everytime the particles coagulate more than the wavelenght of light they will start to explode back into nanoparticles

Felipe Siqueira - 2020-01-22

i did some silver nanoparticles using this method

excited box - 2020-01-22

@Felipe Siqueira My printhead has 1024 nozzles but that might be a useful tip for other things I am doing. Is the laser supposed to melt the particles or is it heating the solvent causing them to separate?

Flederratte - 2020-01-22

Learned a few things in this video. Thanks for the great content!

Chris From SouthAus - 2020-01-17

I love your enthusiasm!

Gary LeLacheur - 2020-01-17

Very interesting, skillful work. And the bit about wet glass cracking more easily. How did you learn this little trick? Accidentally dribble on your workpiece one day while concentrating?
How you found out is almost as interesting as the fact.
It strikes me that there are many of these little tricks to be learned when making something so close to the edge of what's possible.
Nice work.

Felipe Siqueira - 2020-01-22

if you have a dremel this is just common sense.

Sharlenwar - 2020-01-19

Damn, you are going to be a microjet expert! This is where science is interesting.

Petertronic - 2020-01-18

The "wet glass cracks 100x easier than dry" blew my mind slightly, and left me wondering why?

NUDE cnc - 2020-01-25

Is that true ???

John Snow - 2020-01-18

Wet glass breaks easier than dry? That's a great little piece of knowledge to have.

John Snow - 2020-01-18

Wet glass breaks easier than dry? That's a great little piece of knowledge to have.

Andrew Kelley - 2020-01-17

If you wanted internal geometry to the upper side of the get you might be able to use a laser to make specific shapes before the spout. Might be something you could just tack on if you know a guy with a laser above 10k or so.

bronzedivision - 2020-01-17

These smaller more detailed videos and the direct references to your papers are going to make it hilarious the next time some YouTube crusader insinuates you're the guy at the lab who gets the coffee.

Chris G The Patriot - 2020-02-04

I'm just a bartender, but I enjoy science, and I think this is super cool. Keep it up thunderfOot!!

Vusstar - 2020-01-19

releasing this knowledge to the public, thanks

Sad Face - 2020-01-17

I think that microjets aren't useful until you need one.

xScitobor 123 - 2020-02-17

The worlds smallest flame thrower sounds like the coolest way to light a match XD

Pengju Zhang - 2020-02-17

Which kind of flame is needed for softening the quartz? Is the flame with the temperature of 1350 degree is all right?

Carl Crott - 2021-06-20

Are you guys making the system described in the paper? You had me at "For elucidating ultrafast dynamical processes in aqueous solution" after the mention of amino acids. Can we get more details on this project???

Dave W - 2020-01-17

Amazing!
I never even realized I didn't know this!


It just goes to prove you don't know what you don't know! ..... if you know what I mean ;0)

RagbagMcShag - 2020-01-17

Good job. A true artisan makes their own equipment! :)

Michael Mcdowell - 2020-02-27

Idk why but your glass work is so elegant yet thrilling; seems like it would make the glass burn your hands and I never thought glass would break so cleanly

Eadgyt Adba - 2020-01-17

I love you for sharing ! <3

Cape Cod CNC - 2020-01-17

Can you explain/demonstrate the physics behind why wet glass breaks easier?

Jodie Rye - 2020-01-18

Make sure you enter the ginnus book of records for the world smalled flame thrower. Awesome idea and can't wait to see it.

Andrew Skow - 2020-01-21

I look forward to the flamethrower video!
